Integrated RNA and miRNA sequencing analysis reveals a complex regulatory network of Magnolia sieboldii seed germination
Abstract Magnolia sieboldii K. Koch (M. sieboldii) is a deciduous Chinese tree species of the Magnoliaceae family with high ornamental, medicinal, and economic benefits. The germination of M. sieboldii seeds under natural conditions is extremely difficult, thereby hindering the cultivation and breed...
